After Rebirth, the Miracle Doctor Wife Is No Longer Humble!

Chapter 33: Shock

Min Nan was much taller than Ye Ling, and at this moment, he lowered his head slightly and had a perfect view of two glistening droplets of sweat slowly trickling down Ye Ling's delicate collarbone. The beads followed the curve of her collarbone, creating an indescribably enchanting scene.

Particularly with Ye Ling's loose collar slightly undone, Min Nan could faintly discern the subtle contours of her chest.

Min Nan's heart almost stopped. He quickly looked away and felt that the sun had become hotter in an instant. His throat was so dry that it felt like it was about to smoke.

"Big Brother Min Nan, it's so hot. Would you like to take a break?" Ye Ling wiped away her sweat and finally couldn't bear it any longer, taking the initiative to suggest.

Although her body was much stronger now, it was only compared to her previous self.

Moreover, the temperature was high, and the ground was emitting heat from the sun. After walking for more than half an hour, she really couldn't take it.

"Alright," Min Nan immediately agreed. At the same time, he blamed himself for not asking to rest earlier.

He had been immersed in the atmosphere of being alone with Ye Ling the entire time. His mind had been tensed the whole time and he hadn't thought of anything else.

There was a hill next to them. The two of them climbed up and walked under a big tree. Ye Ling was about to sit down when Min Nan had already taken off her thin coat and laid it on the ground.

"Have a seat." Min Nan said naturally.

Ye Ling sat down in embarrassment.

Throughout their journey, most of the conversation was initiated by Ye Ling. On one hand, she feared the awkwardness of silence, and on the other hand, she felt guilty. After all, Dai Wei was the one who informed Min Nan about Du Juan, even though she was closer to Min Nan and hadn't shared anything with him.

Under the tree now, Ye Ling realized they had exhausted most of the conversational topics. She didn't know what else to talk about!

Silence permeated the air, interrupted only by the distant chirping of cicadas and other insects, accentuating the awkward atmosphere between them.

"It's really hot today." Ye Ling grasped at straws to find a topic.

"Yes, it's quite hot." Min Nan nodded in agreement.

The awkwardness grew even more palpable.

In truth, Min Nan could sense Ye Ling's discomfort. He also wanted to say something to ease the tension, but he was not one to engage in lengthy conversations, especially with women. He had no idea how to casually chat with a girl!

For the first time, Min Nan felt that his lack of words was a serious shortcoming.

Why did Dai Wei have no problem chatting with any woman?

Meanwhile, Ye Ling searched her mind for any possible topic. Suddenly, she heard a faint sound coming from beside her. She turned her head instinctively, and in an instant, her pupils contracted as she let out a scream.

"Ah! Snake!" Ye Ling was so scared that she nearly lost her composure. In an instant, she became incapable of thinking, and driven by instinct, she lunged toward Min Nan.

Min Nan smelled the faint scent of a young girl. Ye Ling was caught off guard and threw herself into his arms. He almost fell to the ground.

Min Nan managed to place his hand on the ground in time to support himself, while his other hand instinctively protected Ye Ling. He quickly scanned the ground and indeed spotted a brown-striped snake that had already slithered away.

Min Nan wasn't afraid of snakes. During his childhood, he often accompanied adults to the mountains or fields to catch snakes, and consuming snake meat or drinking snake wine was a local culinary tradition.

"It's alright, it's gone now." Sensing that Ye Ling's body was still trembling, Min Nan tried to console her.

Ye Ling buried her head in Min Nan's chest, her voice strained as if her vocal cords were on the verge of snapping, "It's still nearby!"

Who knew if the snake would return?

Ye Ling's mind still retained the image of the snake, the long body, dazzling brown stripes, and slightly enlarged head... It was truly terrifying!

Ye Ling, whose heart was filled with fear, did not notice Min Nan's increasingly rapid heartbeat.

Min Nan had never even touched a woman's hand in his entire life. Who would have thought that he would be hugging a girl today?

His emotions were very complicated at the moment. Confusion, excitement, panic, and other emotions made his body stiffen. He did not even dare to breathe too hard.

Other than that, Min Nan had the urge to hug Ye Ling with both arms deep inside his heart. This urge came from a man's primitive impulse, but it also came from the desire to face the person he liked.

Min Nan suppressed those urges. He refrained from making any unnecessary movements and simply lightly patted Ye Ling's back, speaking softly, "Should I go look for it and catch it?"

Ye Ling abruptly lifted her head and stared at Min Nan in astonishment. Her gaze seemed to ask, "Are you a devil?"
